Well, I completed week 2 yesterday, rest day today .I took the advice about not going too fast and , touch wood , I managed it .I've looked at next week's programme so running for 3 mins may be a challenge, but it takes a lot for me to give up ! I just wanted to share that i have done this !

Excellent news!! You’re pretty awesome for completing week 2 and running yesterday in that heat!!

In a wierd kind of way, I liked week 3 - less runs!! (Even though they are slightly longer!)

We are in Scotland, so it was cloudy here until well into the afternoon and then hit a balmy 17° lol , so just right to be out !

Well done! Just believe in yourself and stick with the programme and you'll be fine. The slow running us a revelation, isn't it?

Huge well done you!

If you do look ahead, then do it with anticipation and not apprehension, delight not dread...this is a terrific programme and you are going to be ready for each and every run.

Take it slow and take it steady and enjoy the whole thing.

You are going to be just fine:)
